Not a bad little film. Could have done without the songs, but since a lot of the action takes place in a Night Club it's understandable.

The ever-lovely Mary Beth Huges, this time as a brunette, is super-solid in her role as the "bride-to-be". Always one of the "hottest-chicks-on-the-B-Screen", she doesn't disappoint here either. AND, please, get a close look at those LUSCIOUS LIPS of hers !! It doesn't get any better than that !!!

Hugh Beaumont gives a performance that the "Beav" wouldn't be allowed to see ! Bad to the bone. Which means "...he done good at being bad."

Film quality so-so, but if you've not seen it give it a shot. I'll give it 3 Stars for Mary Beth & Hugh...worth the price of admission.

Too bad the image quality is so lo-fi. I liked some of the nightclub scenes. Nice 40s interior decorating. Wild hats.

I passed this movie up many times since it was rated with only 3 stars. But I finally tried it and boy was i glad. This movie is a good black and white movie. The girls have furs to die for and the actors are good enough, but I was glad to see Hugh Beaumont act as a mad man, I only knew him as June's husband. He is mean and nasty, the story is good.

This is pretty forgettable noirish mystery. At least it didn't bore me with melodrama, and it moves along well. The third act did provide some good suspense.

I downloaded the MPEG2 file. The video is often quite contrasty, and there are missing frames evident. The video and audio quality are otherwise good.
